CM850 Electronic Control System – FAULT CODE 147

Accelerator Pedal or Lever Position 1 Sensor Circuit Frequency –
Data Valid but Below Normal Operational Range – Most Severe Level


Overview

CODE REASON EFFECT
Fault Code: 147
PID: P091
FMI: 1
LAMP: Red
SRT: 

Accelerator Pedal or Lever Position 1 Sensor Circuit Frequency – Data Valid but Below Normal Operational Range – Most Severe Level. A frequency of less than 100 HZ has been detected at the frequency throttle input to the ECM.

Severe detate in power output of the engine. Limp home power only.

Circuit Description

This type of throttle interface is designed to accept a variable frequency signal as the throttle signal. An electronic component generates a square wave logic-level signal in which the frequency of the signal corresponds to a throttle command. The frequency values are established by the calibration in the electronic control module (ECM).

Component Location

Throttle location varies with each OEM. Refer to the OEM troubleshooting and repair manual.

Shop Talk

The frequency throttle can be used in conjunction with a voltage throttle or by itself.

Possible causes:

  • Open circuit in the frequency throttle signal wire.
  • Shorted to ground frequency throttle signal wire.
  • Failed frequency throttle.
  • Incorrect frequency throttle reference (input) voltage.

Refer to Troubleshooting Fault Code t05-147
